Best Hotels Site : Taj Hotels Best Insurance Site: LIC India Best Government and PSU Site : IRCTC India. Best Mutual Funds Site : Reliance Mutual Best Trade Site: eBay Best Utility Site : Rel.co.in. (source) A few observations:
Where is MSN India? Doesn’t features in any of the categories! It’s no surprise that MSN India is confused with it’s India strategy and to reinforce that, they have launched MSN Tabloid, a sleazy masala channel! IMHO, Jet airways is probably the worst site (the overall ticket buying process is highly non-intuitive and cumbersome) Where is the best travel site category? best job site category?E-Commerce is too large a category to fit in travel/matrimony/job sites. Sadly, no surprises in these results! What’s your take? Do you agree with all of the above results? | |
